Good article and good point.
Good article and good point. However, call me jaded, but whenever any claim is made comparing fires between EVs and ICE vehicles (or anything involving numbers fed to the public) I tend to remember the old saying of "There are 3 kinds of lies---white lies, damned lies...and statistics." My point being is that data is often massaged or does not include the appropriate factors under true statistical analysis. My bet is that it is really not as simple of a comparison as we are led to believe when discussing fires and two very different vehicle categories. What I would like to see is an unbiased academic statistical analysis outside of Tesla and the NHTSA of what the numbers mean concerning the risks of an electrical fires in EVs; and, if this can really be compared to ICE vehicle fires. Anyone out there know of a reference? Thanks.
